    Introducing Security Bulletins

    Online security is a growing threat for everyone. Technology companies have a duty to protect and inform customers (and the public) whenever security incidents take place. For that reason, we are launching security bulletins. Whenever a security related incident takes place, we are going to publish the following: incident summary, background and password change steps. It’s one of the many things we do to protect our customers.
  • 5/1/2016Feature

    Requested Writer Launched

    Ultius proudly presents one of our most important customer features – requested writer. Clients can now request specific writers they have worked with before right from the order form. Customers build writer lists through adding them to favorites (or block lists). From there, the order form intelligently recommends which writer is available using our Availability Intelligence technology. This feature took us a long time to build and represented a long-awaited customer request.

    Introducing Dial-In PINs

    Ultius is happy to announce that we have officially launched customer dial-in PINs, a security practice designed to protect customer information. When customers register a new account, they are prompted to create a 4-digit PIN code that is used to verify identity before customer records are discussed. Dial-in PINs are an industry standard for banking, telecommunications, and financial services companies - and Ultius is excited to be a leader in implementing this measure for its growing online marketplace.

    First Writer Hired
